FOX's Dragonball: Evolution Information

Below I have listed the official confirmed information about FOX's Dragonball: Evolution

::THE FACTS::

There's been hundreds of rumours and what if's, but it's finally happening! Some think it's a good thing some think it's bad, but either way everyone are somehow interested in the making of this movie and what's to happen.

In the Year 2002, FOX got hold of the Rights to make a live action version of Dragonball, adapted from the original manga.
A domain was bought by FOX (dragonballz-movie.com) and even though it expired in 2006, they did renew it, possiblt more than once.
In September this year (2007), a budget was set of $100+ to shoot the film.
This movie is part of a group of movies they want to film before the Hollywood strike!
James Wong has been hired to direct (directed Final Destination 1 & 3 and The One) which makes things more promising!
November, this year, more members of the crew have been hired, such as the Cinematographer and the special FX director.

::THE PLOT::

The story begins with Goku, who seeks out upon his adoptive grandfather Grandpa Gohan's dying request to find the great Master Roshi and gather all seven Dragon Balls. Of which he has one, in order to prevent the evil Lord Piccolo from succeeding in his desire to use the Dragon Balls to take over the world. And Goku's quest is to obtain the mystical Dragonballs before Piccolo does.
